JAJSPA2D December 2022 – November 2024 INA351
PRODUCTION DATA
The output voltage of the INA351 is developed with respect to the voltage on the reference pin (REF). Often in dual-supply operation, REF pin connects to the system ground. However, In single-supply operation, offsetting the output signal to a precise mid-supply level is useful and required (for example, 2.75-V in a 5.5-V supply environment). To accomplish this level shift, a voltage source must be connected to the REF pin to level-shift the output so that the INA can drive a single-supply ADC. Traditionally, this is accomplished using an external reference buffer as shown in Figure 8-1.
The INA351 has an integrated reference buffer amplifier configured in unity gain, voltage follower configuration internal to the amplifier as shown in 概略内部回路図. This allows designers to directly connect the INA351 to a resistive divider without any need for an external reference buffer amplifier as shown in Figure 8-2.
